This course made WordPress much easier to understand than I expected. The lessons on hosting, plugins, and site customisation were clear and organised, helping me build my first website with confidence.

A great beginner-friendly course with easy-to-follow explanations. I especially liked the sections on domains and WordPress setup, which helped me understand how websites work from start to finish.
